2 Week Liquid Diet, Day 1



Recommended Posts

As I begin day 1 I'm excited, nervous, and excited again!!! The items in the pic are a sample of what my life will be like for a while. I said a serious prayer today for physical and mental strength, and will continue. This is truly a journey! I'll do well, I'm sure. God is with me...His strength is made perfect in my weakness!

HW:325, CW: 282... Surgery on 8/08/16... to be continued...

Hey Dawnie!

Best wishes to you today and beyond! I too started the liquid pre-op diet today. It went okay although I felt hungry throughout and peed a LOT (I know TMI, but still). I'm on Protein shakes with some solid food options throughout provided by my dietician.

How was the first day for you? I have to do this for 2 weeks.

Hey Diva! I have to do it for two weeks also. First day was okay, but I just woke up with a crazy headache.

@@Dawnie Doo ... Just as a heads up I was on the High Protein Boost and thought to myself how yummy it was. It's has 27grams of sugar. I was have terrible stomach pains one week after surgery when I finally figured out how

Much sugar was in those and that what was causing my pains.

You drank them after surgery? I'm only doing it before. I have Bariatric Advantage for post op.

Hi Daniel, I had my sleeve on the 8th as well. How is it going for you. I feel great but not able to get the 60-80 grams of Protein down. How are you doing with that

I will start my two weeks pre op diet on the 29th of August and my surgery date is September 12th. The good thing is I had to go for four more session for psych evaluation and during that time I was on special meal plan. Start weight was 335 lbs and at the present time I am 314 Lbs. I need help to pick up the stuff for my pre op diet

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
